Day 26 of the Omer [from yesterday]
Hod in Netzach – the grace of the minute in eternal victory.
[A delayed reflection on Mother’s Day]Attention to details matters. Small things make a difference in the biggest of pictures.
Yesterday, according to Ginny, the mother of our children, I did pretty well at providing her a good Mother’s Day. Everything was about the small things: providing tasty and celebratory food for the family throughout the day, and cleaning up the kitchen too. Giving Ginny time and space to enjoy the day, start and complete an art project, now hanging in our living room, and attending to the little things that Ginny thought would be good for us all.
Providing a good day works when it reflects our attempts to provide good days all the time. The little details count so much more when we work on them regularly.
